Julia,
Peripheral and Autonomic Neuropathy are complications of diabetes. But neuropathy is caused by things other than diabetes. If I understand the question and you are not diagnosed with DM but concerned that you will be because you have the neuropathy, that is not a given. True, people sometimes already have neuropathy when diagnosed with diabetes, but usually if a person is being treated for neuropathy, they have been tested for diabetes. Your neurologist is the best judge of that.
Have a wonderful weekend.

Thanks for your comments.
I really think that the neurologist would have ordered a test for DM before now, or at least mentioned it to me, so hopefully he doesn't consider it a further complicated.
I will post the results of my MRI scan here in a couple of weeks time.
